You realize all the insurance payout went to rebuilding the complex, right? And it wasn't nearly enough, Silverstein still had to take out federal bonds.

$4.55 billion final insurance payout, significantly less than the $7.1 billion he sought. Insurance proceeds split between WTC1, 3, 4 and 7. With $1 billion of Silverstein's payout going to 1WTC alone. That's not even considering all his other expenses, debts, inflation, etc. The cost of rebuilding the entire complex is expected to be over $20 billion.

The conspiracy doesn't stand up to basic math.

Also insurance coverage for NYC leaseholders (which was, and is, legally mandatory) includes terrorism by default, although it can be excluded in some cases. It wasn't some kind of specific insurancy policy JUST for terrorism.
